New (very grumpy) family member; Puca.. He’s a rescue and fighting some health issues and not happy about it at all. But he’s settling in well.

He hasn’t met Penny yet, he’s in quarantine until he’s feeling better. #caturday

.. steadily the world is consumed by exit doorways.. bugs all seemingly fixed now at least. 2/2

Had one of those days where fixing one bug starts a chain reaction of more bugs. 😅 1/2

Improved a giant floating eyeball boss. (All #Amiga games should have killer eyeballs, I don’t make the rules!) #scorpionengine #gamedev

Anyone who thought they wouldn’t have non-kids characters hasn’t been paying attention to all the other crazy stuff they’ve had. 😅

I have acquired the best/worst soap dispenser imaginable! #HalloweenDecor #spoopy (yes, the skull is made of more tiny skulls. Yes, he has bright LED eyes. No, the tap isn’t even remotely straight.)

This part of the intro had been bothering me for a while.. Anna does not use a baseball bat, I drew it before I knew she’d (occasionally) use a sword. 😅 Cleaned things up, added a ton more detail. #gamedev #amiga #indiedev #pixaki #resprite

Just buried Mushroom. She’ll be missed, only one cat remains (Penny). Mush was the most thoughtful and “polite” cat I’ve ever known, and extremely funny with her climbing and dumb antics. #cats

Join me today in the afternoon (starting ~2pm) as I add finishing touches to Wizonk’s menu screen. It’s SO close to being (functionally) finished. twitch.tv/mixelslab !

Then it’s just more gameplay stuff. 🦇
